Dr. Lin is very kind and always takes the time to answer my questions and address any concerns with great care. All of the staff are also very friendly. The post-surgery aftercare is excellent, which makes me feel completely at ease. I鈥檝e had several different procedures done here, all of which were successful. Dr. Lin is not only caring but also highly skilled and truly outstanding.

My dentist referred Dr. Lin to extract my 4 wisdom teeth. It was scheduled 2 months later initially before I got symptoms. The front desk managed to find a session and prioritized my appointment to the following week, which saved me from potential severer issue.
I was pretty nervous but Dr. Lin explained the extraction procedure carefully and answered my question patiently, which made me more confident for the surgery. I knew nothing about the procedure under general anesthesia and when I waked up, those teeth were removed! The surgery was quick and my friend drove me home about 1.5 hour after I checked in 馃檹. The first day went well so far and Dr. Lin called me in the evening for the follow ups I'm really appreciate his expertise and care for his patients. Thanks for the whole team as well, definitely recommend!

What an amazing experience! Yes, I know, I鈥檓 talking about a dental procedure being an amazing experience, but it鈥檚 true! I had a failed root canal that was old, had been done in another state years ago. I was passing through the Bellevue WA area and contacted Dr Lins office. They were so kind and got me scheduled right away, accommodating my travel plans. When I arrived, the office was very nice and the staff so friendly. They got me checked in, filled out the standard patient intake, and was immediately escorted to an exam room where the dental practitioner was very thorough, explaining everything to me, going over post op care, she was warm and personable and immediately put me at ease. Dr Lin was so friendly and kind. He went over the procedure, what to expect, and I enjoyed chatting with them. The tooth extraction procedure went quickly, I had local anesthesia and there was no pain at all. So easy, I was thrilled. Before long, I was on my way with my post op care kit and a warm goodbye. I highly recommend Dr Lin. The entire staff is amazing! Thank you for the expert care!

About Bellevue Oral, Facial, & Implant Surgery
Bellevue Oral, Facial, & Implant Surgery is an oral and maxillofacial surgery practice located in the Factoria area of Bellevue, Washington, near the intersection of Interstate 90 and Interstate 405, and it also serves patients from Mercer Island and Seattle. Dental implants are a core focus of the practice. Implants are small titanium posts placed into the jawbone to act as tooth root substitutes, and the practice describes how the bone bonds with the titanium over two to four months to create a strong foundation for replacement teeth. In selected cases, an implant can be placed at the same time a tooth is removed, with a temporary tooth attached. The practice also offers Teeth-In-An-Hour, bone grafting, and platelet rich fibrin to support implant treatment, and works as a team with each patient's restorative dentist, who makes the final crown or denture.
Beyond implants, the practice provides wisdom teeth removal, tooth extractions, jaw surgery, treatment of impacted canines and exposure of impacted teeth, oral pathology, and care for jaw joint (TMJ) problems. Depending on the complexity of the case and the patient's preference, procedures such as implant placement and bone grafting can be performed in the office under local anesthesia or with intravenous sedation or general anesthesia. The practice uses fully digital x-rays and imaging, an in-office cone beam CT scanner, surgical planning software, intraoral scanning, and 3-D printing, and it states that, as of 2018, it held a five star Envirostars rating from King County for reducing hazardous waste in the office.
